Welcome to Claremont McKenna College. Claremont McKenna College (CMC) is a highly selective, independent, coeducational, residential, undergraduate liberal arts college. Established in 1946, CMC is a member of The Claremont Colleges, a consortium of seven independent institutions in Claremont, CA.

Before you apply for a position, there are a few things you should know. New employees must provide documents verifying U.S. citizenship or, for aliens, documents verifying legal permission to work in the United States. Employment is contingent upon successful completion of reference and background checking process. Applicant's acceptability for positions requiring use of a college vehicle is contingent upon a driving record acceptable to the College's automobile liability insurance. Depending on job responsibilities, satisfactory completion of a functional physical capacity test may be required.

Faculty Employment Opportunities

Recruitment for faculty positions is managed by the College’s academic departments. A link to the faculty position listings can be found here.

Equal Opportunity and Nondiscrimination Statement

In addition to its commitment to a harassment-free educational and working environment, the College is an equal employment opportunity employer. The College is committed to a policy of equal employment opportunities for all applicants and employees and complies with all applicable state and federal laws on the matter. The College does not unlawfully discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including gender, pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), gender identity, gender expression, national origin, ancestry, age, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition or medical leave, marital status, sexual orientation, or any other category protected by law. The College also prohibits the harassment of any employee on any of these bases.

Disability Accommodations

In compliance with applicable laws ensuring equal opportunities to qualified individuals with a disability, CMC will make reasonable accommodations for the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual (applicant or employee) with a disability if the disability affects the performance of essential job functions, unless the accommodation results in an undue hardship for the College. Employment decisions are based on the merit and not an individual’s disability.

An applicant or employee who requires an accommodation should contact the immediate supervisor and the Human Resources Office. If multiple accommodations are identified that do not pose an undue hardship for the College, the selection of an accommodation will be at CMC’s discretion. To request disability accommodation for any part of the application or hiring process, please contact Human Resources at (909) 621-8490 or hr@claremontmckenna.edu for assistance.

Statistics Regarding Crime on Campus

All colleges and universities receiving federal funds are required to publish a summary of their crime prevention strategies, fire safety, crime reporting policies, and other important matters related to safety and security on campus. This information is contained in CMC’s Annual Security & Fire Safety Report, which also contains information about certain crime statistics for the three previous calendar years for incidents occurring on campus, in certain off-campus buildings, in property owned or controlled by CMC, or on public property within or immediately adjacent to and accessible from campus

Criminal activities unfortunately do occur at CMC and The Claremont Colleges, so we hope you will take a moment to familiarize yourself with this important information.

If you have trouble with the online version or would like to receive a hard copy of the Annual Security & Fire Safety Report, please contact CMC’s Human Resource Department at (909) 621-8490 or hr@cmc.edu.
